The PC Chairs or a designee will post an agenda for each PC meeting to the FOLIO wiki here: https://wikifolio-org.folioatlassian.orgnet/wiki/display/PC/Product+Council+Agenda+and+Minutes. The chairs will strive to post the agenda at least 24 hours prior to the meeting. While the chairs will use their judgment to prioritize agenda items, anyone may suggest that topics be added, changed, or deferred to a future meeting.

...
- EDIFACT invoices (Wiki info, Preparing import profiles, Linking to POLs after import) and EDIFACT order export

- Improvements to the receiving display
- Receiving UAT (user acceptance testing) - call in Slack by Dennis:
- Calling all users with an interest in Receiving workflows. We will be releasing a number of updates to the receiving application in Kiwi that appear subtle but involve many aspects of orders and receiving. We need help verifying that your workflows have not been impacted by these structural changes and that the added functionality is behaving as expected. This UAT session will begin Monday September 13th and will run for 1 week. To participate complete the form here, it should take about 1 hour. Thank you for your feedback!

- Excited to see TC progress on requirements for new apps to be added to release schedule, still hopeful for LDP app for Kiwi
- Ongoing frustration from both SIG members and others on our #reporting-general Slack channel regarding inconsistent LDP support across hosting vendors (and across customers within hosting vendors) - see conversation around August 31 for details
- SIG meetings continuing to cover some professional development topics like using Jupyter Notebooks to connect to LDP
- Development status
- At this time, over 100 report queries have been written, reviewed, and posted on the FOLIO Analytics report repository
- Our next release includes queries on missing and overdue items, HathiTrust reports, vouchers, agreements, and more. (Hoping to release soon.)
- Ongoing reminders for all FOLIO Participating Institutions
- Action =>> Please review Reporting SIG-All Report Clusters (60 issues) in JIRA and RANK each report cluster for your institution (R1-R5); the SIG uses these ranks to prioritize report development
- Reporting SIG is always recruiting new subject matter experts and report developers. Please contact Angela if you have staff who would be a good fit for reporting.

- Operational Technical Debt discussion (here with the Product Council). Also led yesterday with the TC. Operational and SysOps needs - System Operations and Management SIG - FOLIO Wiki
- Requires changes in philosophy in the underlying architecture of folio.
- Most of these changes would need to be done by the “Core” team (but they are very busy)
- Folio lacks a blueprint of how it should work or what it wants to be.
- “Non-functional” requirements are not normally ranked by implementing libraries.
- FOLIO has problems bringing NFR requirements into the production chain. SysOps SIG neither has a Product Owner, nor a development team.
- Resume actions on FOLIO Integrations
- “Integrations” comprises everything that is needed to make an external system and FOLIO act together (so they act like “one system” to the end user). Can be the development of interfaces and/or new modules in FOLIO. Can also be changes made to the external system by the vendor.
- A working group meets that collects and prioritizes missing Integrations
- Focus on “Pain Points”
- Consulting the Implementers group
